Parent Involvement and Communication

Beechworth Secondary College places great importance on the communication between school and parents, and values parental involvement.

Newsletter
Our school newsletter that is sent home via Compass every second Friday and provides regular information about upcoming events, including dates, to the school community. The newsletter is also available via our website at www.bworthsc.vic.edu.au or can be emailed to you at your request.

School Council & Sub-Committees
The School Council is the official governing body of the school community. It is the body that develops, approves and reviews all policies within the College. It is therefore vital to have effective representation from parents, students and community to ensure the College policies reflect the values and needs of our community. Our school council has six elected parent members, four elected staff members, two students and two co-opted members. In addition, members of the school community are encouraged to serve on various sub-committees such as Education, Wellbeing, Resources, Buildings and Grounds and Community Recreation Centre.

Assisting with Student Activities
Parents are welcome to assist the school in student activities such as school production (back-stage, costume making and set construction), sports days, excursions and special events.
